Out of interest and for review purposes I might pick up a box, but I share most of the sentiments. Their dark age archers kit was laughable at best (absolutely no extra bits, only the bare minimum), and I've been cold about their cavalry sets as well. It's a bit like they want to do metal minis in plastic for some reason.
I really don't like the bows and crossbows, and all of the figures look like they would be better suited for 1:35. Those ranged weapons are puny for 28mm, and will be very fragile. I hope they listen to feedback and tweak them.
